Change subject: vm payload: add file injection to vm

File vdsm/constants.py.in
Line 54: P_PAYLOAD_PREFIX = '/var/run/vdsm/payload/'
In that case I still think /var/run is a bad place for these temporary files. 
If we look forward to the FHS 3.0 drafts 
(http://www.linuxbase.org/betaspecs/fhs/fhs/ch05s13.html):

This directory was once intended for system information data describing the
system since it was booted. These functions have been moved to /run; this
directory exists to ensure compatibility with systems and software using an
older version of this specification.

Given Fedora is leading this change choosing /var/run now doesn't sound very 
future-proof.

I think I still missed the problem with /tmp. mkdtemp will create the directory 
700 so I fail to see the security aspect.
